Stella Artois





Bit of a controversial one this one. I've come across many people along the way who will say "Stella" when asked
their favourite beer/s. Not all the time, but often you see this beer in the hands of wankers trying to look
upmarket at bars. No offence if you're a regular drinker, just sayin.

The truth is this is just camel piss in Europe but certain individuals treat it like a luxury brand here, maybe it's the fancy name. You know how you laugh at
Europeans who think 'Foster's' is an exotic Australian beer? Yeah well this is them laughing back.

I've always thought it to be overrated. That being said, it isn't a bad beer in the whole scheme of things. There
are worse tasting beverages you could be drinking, so I ain't gonna be a straight hater. Perceptions aside, I'm just gonna
drink this like it's any other beer.

At the end of the day, there just isn't a whole lot going on. It's very light on flavour, with a subtle aftertaste
to boot. The carbonation isn't clean (but not as bad as the kronenbourg), it just feels cheap all round. Easy to drink,
but all the more boring for it.

6.5/10
